What is a Frisbii Release Note?

A release note covers all the new features present in a new version of Frisbii: functionalities, bug fixes, improvements to the user experience and updates to our knowledge base.

This release note is intended for all users of the Frisbii application and, more specifically, for administrators of the Salesforce org on which it is installed.

We update our release notes as soon as possible, after each new version of the Frisbii application. Our Release Notes provide brief descriptions of the improvements and new features we've introduced.

How is the update performed?

The new version is available on request. If you are interested in this new version, please open a request on our support community (see Creating a request) asking for the update.

To ensure that the update runs smoothly :

Flagship features

Here are the major new features you'll find in Summer '22.

Stripe Credit card integration

For whom
For all Frisbii Finance or Administrator users.

Why
The new Stripe Credit card payment method allows you to add a payment link to your invoice template, so that your customers can pay with their credit card.
This will make the checkout process easier for you and your customers, and reduce missed payments.

How to
Stripe integration requires installation of the FrisbiiAPI extension package and a few additional steps, which are described in this installation guide. Next, the payment method list will include the new Stripe Credit card value.
Depending on the configuration of your current invoice template, you can choose how you wish to integrate payment links into your PDF invoice templates.
This user guide is available for training Frisbii users.

Changes in billing adjustments

For whom
For all Frisbii Finance or Administrator users.

Why
Since the feature was introduced in Spring '20, we've had a number of requests for improvements from customers with different situations in which to use accrual. This version includes the desired fixes and improvements listed here: Subscriptions - Regularization improvements since Summer '22.

How
Following the update, you don't need to activate any additional options to benefit from these enhancements.

Fixes and improvements

PDF export

Mass export PDFs

We've changed the way ZIP files are downloaded. Initially a link was generated to download the files, but when it contained too many invoices, the link wasn't whole, it was trimmed.

From now on, a hypertext link will generate the ZIP file.          

Search field

Deactivate criteria filter on accounting data

There was a criterion filter on the Billing Contact field that prevented users from selecting a contact that was not associated with the same account as the accounting data.

This filter was too restrictive and has been replaced by a validation rule on the Accounting data object, which can be activated according to your needs.

Send invoices by email

Improvements to the LWC page

Use the Send invoice by e-mail button on the Invoice object to access the Send e-mail page.

Now you can easily change the sender (to choose a Salesforce user):

Account management

Use of personal accounts in invoices

You can now use a personal account as an account and/or contact in an invoice, and you will no longer receive an error message when creating or issuing the invoice.

Personal accounts are hybrids between accounts and contacts, which posed a problem when saving to recognize the record as a contact or an account.

Calculation changes

Precise field calculation evolution

From now on, the calculation of accurate fields to 4 decimal places available on invoice lines and the invoice are totally independent of non-accurate fields. Two new fields are available on the invoice line: "Precise VAT amount" and "Precise discount amount". Precise calculations require 4 decimal places on your PDFs.          

MRR available in amount before tax

Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) is now calculated on the amount of the subscription item excluding VAT. You'll find this field on each Subscription item, as well as on the Subscription and in your reports.

Other Summer '22 corrections:

  • Correction of invoices in English (org FR): Display acronym and amounts under 1000.

  • User partner license: PDF generation from the community without access to configuration now possible.

  • User interface: Invoice line, quotation line item and Subscription item sections were translated into English

  • Logo display in Company name: Logo preview available again
